The Midland Journal as a Family
Paper.

We refer with pardonable pride to
the improvements we have been able
to add to our journal within the last
fortnight, and we believe our friends
will not consider us unreaso nable if we
ask them to do little missionary
work for us among their neighbors
Show the paper to them if they are not
subscribers and speak word in behalf
of the JOURNAL. We refer to our local
and rural departments as being unsur
passed by the run Of country papers.
which alone make the paper worth
infinitely more to every citizen in the
county, than the subscription price
Our Illustrated supplement- we ask
every reader to compare with the best
weekly paper or family paper publish
ed in the country. Our syndicate en-
ploy the very best writers, and the best
artists to make the engravings, that
are to be had at the head centres of art.
The printing is done on Hoe bed press
es, and is far superior in style and art
finish to any of the daily illustrated
papers, which are printed on fast cyl
Under presses, that cannot turn out fine
cut work.
In addition to these great improve
ments we have put into the MIDLAND
office, since our last week s issue, a
press that will do the finest newspaper
work, as well as pamphlet and other
job work, requiring accurate register
and delicate impression, and when we
get the press properly adjusted, which
generally requires week or two after a
press is newly set, we will make the
MIDLAND JOURNAL thorough; in typo
graphical neatness and class of matter
unsurpassed by any family paper in
the country. We will not promise as
large bulk as the mammoth Sunday
weeklies turn out, but in quality of
matter will stand abreast of the best of
them. These are brave words for those
not given to boastings but the proof of
the pudding is in the eating, and the
proof of the excellence of the paper is
in the typographical execution and the
matter it serves.
A well managed paper is felt by
every one to be a credit to his neigh
borhood, and it is much more; it is a
moral and pecuaiary benefit to it. 1t
eXerts wider and more forcible infiu-
ence toward lettering the condition of
the community than any other one fac
tor of the social fabric. Now friends,
whatever aid you extend to US is shar-
ed by yourselves and neighbors. Each
one of you might get new subscriber
ior the MIDLAND with very little effort.

Christian Ministry.
Communicated.

A letter of |. J. in the MIDLAND jour
NAL, touches upon so many points of vital
interest to the whole community, that few
candid, and we trust, sincere observations
upon some of them, may be permitted. For
the writer of the letter in question there is
nothing but good feeling on the part of this
penman, and it is not in any sense per-
sonal matter, if objection is made to some
of the promises it contains; the fault is not
in the writer, but may be in the system, Of
which he has given very fair exposition.
That there is a wide spreadapathy on
religioussubjecis on the part of this whole
community is admitted, but it is not to all
appearance any more so, than in the
world atlarge. The cause oft is the question
The remedy is we'll known. The way of
salvation has been made so plain, that the
wayfaring man though fool he be, may
walk and not err therein. The plan of
salvation is as universal as the curse, nor is
it limited to the educated, or to those able
10 hear or read the scriptures, or the record
we have of Gods dealings and teachings in
past ages with the children of men.
Christ died for "all," and of every pa-
ton, kindred tongue and people they that
fear Him and work righteousness will be
accepted of him.
The Christian sabbath" is not the jew
ish, and the command to remember it and
keep it "Holy" is not explicitly command
ed in the New Testament All Christians
are agreed to observe one day in seven as a
day ofrest and for purposes of public wor-
ship, but not from the same motive as the
Jews who are still under that school mast
err, the law of Moses, which has been done
away in Christ An idolatours worship of
days and times, or the idolatours observance
of them Is expressly prohibited by the apos-
tie, or at least he sharply chides one of the
churches for this very thing.

things omitted from the quotations, that

We having heard considerable about
Holsten cattle and wanting to keep stock
which would be profitable for milk, butter
and beef, concluded to take drive into
Chester county and view the herd imported
and bred by G. w. Roberts e Co, at the
Allerton farm on the Brandywine two aud
a half miles west of West Chester The fact
is we never saw lot of cattle which pleas
ed us so well in every particular. Would
consider it worth the time to any one who
is fond of looking at fine stock, even if they
did not wish to buy, to go and see their
herd.
They are large healthy cattle giving n
great quantity of milk, and make one pound
of butter tor every ten quarts OF milk.
The following is the milirecord Of the
dam and grand dam, of the calf (DudIeigh
eight mo. old and weighs 600 lbs) which we
bought of C. w. Roberts & Co. The grand
dam of Dndleigh, was DAMS, having rec
ord of Al qts. of milk per day. Johanna,
dam of Dudleigh imported by them in 1888
has milk record of 80 qts. of milk per
day at four years old. Dudleighs sire Me
oleas 3rd, is four years old and weighs 23C0
lbs was imported by them in 1888, sire
was Nicolas No. so, receiver of first prize
of 500 francs and gold medal:at the Intena-
tional show in Paris in 1873 afterwards
owned by the Model Farm Association of
North Holland Sire of Nic1lras No. 80
was KEGS, one of the grandest bulls ever
bred in Holland, receiving Z, 1st and End
prizes in Holland.
We advise any persons wishing to invest
in this kind of stock to see C. w. Roberts IL
Co.'S herd before purchasing, as they have
several very fine calves from six weeks to
twelve mo. old TO select from.

Reply to Rev. I. Jewell by Friend
Marshall.

Calvert, 1Sth-of 4th mo. 1887.
Some one asked |. Jewell on what day of
the week he made his living. In his ans
wer he alluded especially to the society of
Friends, as having no paid ministry and
being small in plumbers and consequently
about dying out. If he will look back two
hundred years and see the advancement of
the principles the society have always adj
yocated are growing; in almost all nations
and amongst all societies their testimony
has always been for equal rights of woma n
with man, and thousands, yea millions are
struggling to tear themselves off kingly and
priestlv powers. Women few years ago
were not allowed an education to fit them
selves for practice as physicians but what
a change has taken place within few years
anttsse what the w. C. T. Z. are during in
the land for the elevation of themselves
and our nation at large. Then 1. Jewell
without prejudice will see that the primer
pies that the Friends society hold can ney-
er die. We are full believers in the script
ures of truth, but cannot call them anything
but pointers to the more sure word of pro-
phecy, the light of Christ or the grace of
God, that hath appeared unto all mankind
teaching the denying of all ungodly and
the worlds pride; we are not ashamed of
the use of thee or thou to single person;
no true Christian can countenance training
for war, we desire no controversy with
those who see different, but desire the
peace Of all.

Spondcnt of the New rk Tribune
writes
Hannibal Ilamln, in the di cussion of
the question of service pensions, remarked
that the Grand Army was based upon the
design of the grandcst charity of any in
stitution in the world But there were
uncounted thousands of the poor who
have been in the service that neither the
Grand Army nor the Woman's Relief
Corps can reach. 1t was necessary to ap-
peal to Congress to reach them, and he
advocated that appeal. The service pen
sion advocates, he thought, were praCti-
cally opposing that measure of relief,
He declared that there was a reasonable
prospect that the bill favored by the com
mittee would become a law within two
years. A esidential election was com
Ing and there was power behind that.
lie did not assume to be n prophet, but
he predicted that President who would
again veto disability pension bill could
never be reelected. If a service pension
bill were vetoed he could not be sure that
the same result would follow.
General Merri |, of Massachusetts,
chairman of the Pension Committee, made
Il half hours speech on the same side in
opposition to service pensions, and Col.
johnson, of Indiana, was allowed the
same time for presenting the argument in
favor of that policy. The roll was then
called and the majority report against
service pensions was adopted by a vote of
3lS to 1I3.

Pure Water for Stock.

We desire to call the attention of
stockmen and especially dairymen
to the necessity OF proyi'iing pure
water for stock. Impure water is Il
fertile source of disease aud milk
contamination, and yet it is a fact
that many people give the subject
no consideration whatever Stock
is permitted to drink out Of any sort
OF pool that happens to be handiest
and to do SO often when but little
expense and trouble would provide
plenty of good water. 1t is in the
little violations of the plain laws OF
nature that all of us are apt to be
the greatest offenders. But the az
gregate results of these small vic
atoms are often exceeding disaster.

Physicians say that constant
brooding over physical ills is
dangerous. \ man who does it is
pretty sure to become afflicted with
some one OF the diseases that makes
the strongest impression on his
fancy For this reason medical
men discourage the reading of med
zeal books by those unskilled in med,
icine. These books do not give def
nate instructions enough to enable
any one safely to doctor himself or
family. In fact, the most skilinl
physicians do not attempt to pres
cribe for their own symptoms, OF
for those very dear and near to
them. This example of those most
skilled may certainly be followed
with benefit by those who know lit
tie of Materia Medica or the laws OF
their own systems. The best phys
icians say that it is dangerous for
laymen to make severe study OF
medical books, as they invariably
induce morbid disease about THEN
own health.
